Risk of world domination.</b><br><br><b>Locus and Hugo Award-winning author John Scalzi brings us <i>Starter Villain</i>, a turbo-charged tale of a family business with a difference – as Charlie discovers upon inheriting it.
This one comes with a hidden headquarters, minions, talking cats and villainous rivals worthy of James Bond. </b><br><br>Inheriting his late uncle’s business proves complicated. It’s also way more dangerous than Charlie could ever have imagined.
Because his uncle’s supervillain status was a secret – until now.<br><br>Divorced, broke and emotionally dependent on his cat, Charlie wasn’t loving life. Although they weren’t close, news of his Uncle Jake's death didn’t help.
